In this difficult situation, it is heartbreaking to see how people are forced to take distance from each other, but it should not stop us from living in harmony, which is the true essence we learn from choral music.

No matter where, and what we are, we all now , without exception, are struggling for our lives as well as other's. And as a choir, we are challenged to keep our music alive when singing together in person is an unaffordable luxury.

It is hard to see that even during these difficult struggling times, some people are still treating racial, ethnicity, religious and all types of differences as an issue. Through its universal language, let us keep our music alive and raise our voices to remind people to respect differences, to embrace diversity and to love all people with dignity. Let us celebrate a colorful world although it is now in a gray setting.

Let us remember, we all might be distanced physically, but we are all fighting the same storm and will always be united by heart, by music and by humanity.
